Business question from James Clappison (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 20 October 2011. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

A few moments ago in response to a question, my right hon. Friend described Conservative policy in the last manifesto of being"““in Europe but not run by Europe.””" He will remember a particular occasion on which he was standing for election, when he described himself as being somebody who was"““in the Conservative party, not run by the Conservative party.””—[Official Report, 22 June 2009; Vol. 494, c. 619.]" Does he think that the same principle could usefully be applied to the Back-Bench business on Monday?
